The Otis House Museum at Fairview-Riverside State Park near Madisonville will close to the public beginning Tuesday to fix damages sustained during Hurricane Isaac last year. Repairs are expected to be complete by mid-October.

Areas needing repairs include the roof, sheetrock and flooring. Repairs will also be made to the park's entrance station, day-use pavilion and bathhouse, according to Louisiana's Office of State Parks.

Isaac flooded nearly the entire park with water from the overflowing Tchefuncte River, causing an estimated $675,000 in damage. The Otis House, built in 1885, received moisture damage but did not flood.

The park was closed after the late August storm. Otis House, the riverside campground and the day-use area of the park reopened in December.

Located just east of Madisonville, the state park features 81 campsites, fishing, canoeing and picnicking. Otis House was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
